DENVER—Marijuana legalization opponents are regrouping after voters approved pot in Colorado and Washington. Some of them are in Denver promoting a new organization that says marijuana should be treated like a health risk and not legalized.

The group is called Project SAM, for “smart approaches to marijuana.” Former U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy is among the members.

The idea is to halt the legalization movement by arguing the U.S. can ease the ills of prohibition without legalizing the drug.

Colorado marijuana advocates are planning to protest the Project SAM announcement. Marijuana activists say the drug is safer than alcohol and tobacco and that legalization doesn’t pose a public health risk.

The 7,800-acre Winter Valley Fire in Moffat County was 100 percent contained Tuesday as visible smoke from interior islands showed minimal creeping behavior, according to the Bureau of Land Management.

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said Tuesday that he respects the decision of Denver Broncos players on Sunday to protest President Donald Trump and that the president’s NFL criticism was a bid to “distract the country” from his policy failures.
